I'm in a setup with a license/deployment server, three clustered search heads and a deployer, and three non-clustered indexers.
Per the documentation on setting up the DMC, I'm setting it up on the deployer. It picked up the indexers, but I can't get it to pick up my search heads and I'm not sure why. When I turn on forwarder monitoring, my search heads show up as heavy forwarders.
How do I get the search heads to show up in the DMC?
This is fixed in an extremely odd way. I had to edit the server roles for the license/deployment server (even though it picked them up automatically) so I could get the error for a deployment server to have another role and accept it, and then all the servers that weren't indexers graduated from "New" to "Configured".

Add those as search peers.
Try this

I followed that and added the entire environment, and everything shows up in the general setup tab, but I still see only the indexers in the overview and none of the other tabs (aside from indexing) work.
